Sorry if this is the wrong place for this. Can someone explain how to post a photo from Flikr. All I am getting is a red arrow. If I click on the share button over the photo it gives me the link. I am copying the link and then clicking on the yellow box with the mountain on it. In the pop up I am pasting the link. All I get is a red arrow. What am I doing wrong. I would like to be able to post this way instead of uploading them at a smaller size and reducing the quality of the photo. Thanks for any help.

I don't know if it's the prefered way. But, I clicked on "Actions" then "Sizes". I clicked on the large. Then I right clicked and "opened image in new tab". From that window, it's the picture only. From there I just copied the URL, and pasted it into the image box here on POTN.

you don't have to click on the yellow box with the mountain on it (I had a terrible time with this).
Pull up your image on Flickr.
Click on the "share" tab and check BBC code. When the code appears, copy it.
Go to the forum, start a new thread and just paste the BBC code into the message of the post. I usually check the preview option to make sure I like what I'm seeing. If you are happy with it, then just go ahead and hit submit.

Thank you, that works and is much easier.
